Determining metabolic reprogramming events in stem cells in response to inflammatory disease phenotype
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are responsible for the repair of damaged tissue following injury and disease as well as moderating innate and adaptive immune responses and regulation of self-tolerance and tissue homeostasis. Read more
Dissecting mechanisms that control adult stem cells in health, disease, and ageing
Research interests/description of main research theme. Read more
Exploring the role of interferon stimulated genes (ISGs) in stem cells of serous ovarian cancer
Research Group:
Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the leading cause of mortality in women due to gynaecological cancers. High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) accounts for 70-80% of patients with EOC. Read more
Studying protein homeostasis in healthy and malignant stem cells
This PhD will focus on studying the protein biology of healthy and malignant stem cells of the blood system. Read more
MSc by Research: Monitoring and manipulating kinase activity in stem cells
Posttranslational modifications of proteins are important regulatory events that impact most if not all physiological functions of cells. Read more
Role of primary cilia in skeletal muscle stem cells and muscle regeneration
Primary cilia are cellular organelles present at the surface of many cell types in vertebrates. In recent years, they have been shown to play essential roles in relaying signalling information from the environment to the cell. Read more
Control of skeletal muscle regeneration and aging by cell signalling
The ability of skeletal muscles to regenerate in response to injury, exercise, growth or disease depends on a population of adult skeletal muscle stem cells. Read more
Cardiac Harmony: Modelling Heart Beats with Stem Cells and Code
Despite significant advancements in cardiac research, heart disease remains a leading cause of mortality globally. Unexpected cardiac events can occur even in young, fit individuals engaged in routine activities. Read more
Exploring chemoprevention: Investigating the impact of novel Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) on breast cells and onset of tumours using a Body-on-a-chip model
Research Group:
Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
Endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) are a group of chemicals that can alter the normal functioning of the body’s hormonal system and can have harmful effects. Read more
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) as model systems to study hematological malignancies
Applications are invited for a 4-year self-funded PhD Studentship starting all year round. Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a type of blood cancer originating at the level of haematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) and often progress to acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Read more
Creating patient-specific retinal organoids from human induced pluripotent stem cells for in vitro simulation of uveitis
Uveitis, although uncommon, is a notable cause of visual impairment and blindness. Uveitis encompasses a range of conditions driven by both innate autoinflammatory and adaptive autoimmune CD4 T-cell responses. Read more
PhD Opportunity - Investigating the role of autophagy and mitochondrial function in leukaemic stem cells
'TO APPLY, PLEASE CLICK INSTITUTION WEBSITE'. Our lab is interested in biological processes that contribute to drug resistance in myeloid leukaemias, with particular focus on leukaemic stem cells (LSCs). Read more
MSc by Research: Non-canonical functions of SRSF protein kinase (SRPK) in pluripotent stem cells
The overarching goal of our research is to identify and characterise the protein kinase signalling pathways that control stem cell pluripotency and differentiation and determine how protein kinase signalling is disrupted to cause human developmental disorders. Read more
MSc By Research: Patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells as a test bed for new therapies for aniridia-associated keratopathy
The MSc by Research programme at the University of Aberdeen is for students interested in a research-intensive master's degree. It is designed specifically to enhance your skills for a PhD or research career. Read more
MSc By Research: Isolation and Sorting of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells for Cell Therapy Applications in Lipodystrophy Disorders
The MSc by Research programme at the University of Aberdeen is for students interested in a research-intensive master's degree. It is designed specifically to enhance your skills for a PhD or research career. Read more
